Representative Susie Lee, who hosted the announcement, emphasized the importance of this development.

"Ending Solar for All is a loser deal for Nevada. It will do two things: 1) Kill clean energy jobs and 2) raise electricity costs for Nevada families. Since President Trump first illegally froze these funds, I've been calling on him and his administration to change course. Our state leads the nation in solar power potential.
